In order to get it to move, turn-off non-needed programs that run as services, these programs can be found using taskmgr and then disabling under Control PanelSystem and SecurityAdministrative Tools services then add ram, or add a SSD or hybrid drive, These things fly under linux with correct drivers and also win8, which has been optimize for AMD CPU's. win 7 installed is somewhat pokey with bloatware, Or just reload with the rescue CD's they don't have the added programs.
